Vermont's 10 Best Mountain Bike Trails

Burning Spear, Waterbury

10 / 10

After climbing to the top of Perry Hill, you deserve a serious reward on the way down. Burning Spear is it. On the up, this trail picks its way through rocky ledges and northern hardwood. On the down, it switchbacks a rocky, rollicking, speedy rollercoaster that flies around bermed corners, squeezes between rocky bulges, and sometimes conceals your next challenge until you're on top of it.
